Come rock around the Christmas tree with the Bosque Chorale as rehearsals resume Tuesday, September 10, at 7 p.m. for our upcoming concert, Jingle All the Way!

TRASHED!!! Let’s talk trash and recycling for Bosque County. The Heart of Texas Council of Governments (Solid Waste Dept.) is giving out more money in the form of grants just like the one that was written for the glass crusher/tumbler in Meridian. So let’s put our heads together and figure out another use for the money in the way of recycling. Bring your complaints/comments/criticisms/suggestions on Sept. 16 at 5:00 p.m. to the Bosque Arts Center and let’s brainstorm. -DT

Our July meeting was quite col-orful. Our speaker, Tina Dekle, provided a great deal of informa-
tion on the process of dyeing fabric. Then we cre-ated our own design and dyed the fabric. Inter-esting results! Our next program will be presented by Susan Hutyra, the “Quilt Bucket List”: What quilts are on your list? The next meeting is September 3 at 6:30 p.m. and all are invited to join us. -LP
